This is strange, Linus has been running this same combination with -31 (with -27 we had a regression, but it was fixed recently and the fix is in the current master). I have also tried this combination with both -27 and -31 after my fix and it works fine. There are only a couple of other patches that may affect iwlwifi since the previous net-next.git pull request... I'll try this combination on my machine and see if I can reproduce the problem. -- Cheers, Luca.
